Want to bet how the fact check comes out on this?
Still waiting for the full text of the rebutal by Mr. Daniels.
FULL TEXT: Republican Address to the Nation | Speaker of the House John Boehner | speaker.gov
Bull****. It was an inflationary bubble, started by government. The crazy loans did not start until the bubble was well in place, as it was the bubble which enabled the added risk. Fannie and Freddie started the bubble, then kept it growing, eventually changing their own rules so that they could keep up with private money.
I'm not sure whether I should be chuckling at sarcasm or be moved to tears over this comment....The joy that I'm feeling right now and no doubt the rest of America is feeling after one of the greatest SOTU speeches in our history is absolutely mind blowing. I was moved, I literally felt like I was floating as obama challenged us and enlightened us about how we americans can do anything. With tears flowing and a face beaming with pride knowing that this is such a special time in history to be led by greatness...how lucky we are as we all won tonight together united in hope and change...
I'm not sure whether I should laugh or cry over this comment....
An overwhelming majority of Americans approved of the overall message in President Obama's State of the Union speech on Tuesday night, according to a CBS News poll of speech watchers.
According to the poll, which was conducted online by Knowledge Networks immediately after the president's address, 91 percent of those who watched the speech approved of the proposals Mr. Obama put forth during his remarks. Only nine percent disapproved.
Last year, 83 percent of viewers approved of Mr. Obama's State of the Union remarks.
I don't really care about what politicians say, because they never lie, am I right?
I've seen what he has done for the last three years and in my mind actions speak louder than words.
I probably would watch it if I knew it was his words and not some speech writers, and that he was speaking from the heart and not a tele-prompter.
Why don't you read the last part of my post before flapping your gums? You might learn something.Oh wow, a hyper partisan conservative thinks Obama's speech was bad. Color me suprised. :roll:
In more breaking news, the sun will rise in the east and set in the west.
Don't overlook that he presided over the only 8 years in American history in which the median household income actually fell. Gotta wonder where all that money went...
But it's not all bad news. The median income of millionaires increased 400% during the same term.
Gosh I wonder if there is a connection.
More bull****, because I watched it. It wasn't nearly as good as some of his other speeches, disagreement aside. He also left out important facts.It amazes me that people are so partisan that they won't even watch the SOTU speech. As much as I disagreed with Bush, I never missed one of his SOTU addresses.
Republicans ALWAYS **** up the country when they are in charge......
So do the Democrats. Clinton was in charge and signed Grahm-Bliley, which gutted the Glass-Steagal Act. That law caused the economic mess more than any other factor. Did Bush suck? Of course he did, but let us not forget the Democrats, who enabled Bush to suck, and for Obama to suck later on. If you are picking one side or another in this debate (Democratic or Republican), you are making a sucker's bet.

Far too many here buy rhetoric and ignore the results because it is easy to believe what you are told instead of doing research to verify what you are told. Notice the Obama results and stop buying the rhetoric.
Many here will attack the messenger and ignore the content. That is partially what is wrong with this country today, ignoring substance and buying rhetoric.

FACT CHECK: Obama's 2012 State Of The Union | Fox News
Yeah...Dems who historically have been the regulatory hawks have pandered to Wall Street and the financial sector for decades now. Relatively...they are still better than Republicans but they aren't the Dems of 30 or 40 years ago!
Yes, the Dems are drinking the Kool-Aid, but so are you. No spin? HA!!. There is just as much spin in Bill O'Reilly as there is in Obama, which gives me an idea. Bill O'Reilly for President. He can be just as irrelevant as Obama.
Most of us are perfectly well aware that politicians present facts in a manner that's most flattering to their own argument, even it shades the truth from time to time. They all do it, all the time.
wow. An outlet that calls itself a news media calling Obama's State of the Union address, "rhetoric."
They don't even bother to conceal their bias anymore, huh? No wonder righties love Fox News like they do. It feeds them what they want to hear.
